Teaming up with resistance fighters, the Gladers take on WCKD's vastly superior forces. Their journey takes them to the Scorch, a desolate landscape filled with unimaginable obstacles. No one wants to see the same movie for the rest of their lives.

Kaya Scodelario welcomes the sequel’s genre variety, and hopes it isn’t just a single occurrence. In this next chapter of the epic Maze Runner saga, Thomas (Dylan O'Brien) and his fellow Gladers face their greatest challenge yet: searching. Our audience from last year has grown up a little bit, so they need a little bit more of a grown-up movie.” Thomas Brodie-Sangster added, “It’s giving teens the respect they deserve.” “They want things that are as dangerous and as scary as they can get, and still be allowed to go see the movie. “With YA, we gotta keep finding things that are original,” said producer Wyck Godfrey of surprising viewers, pointing to his three teenage sons. Alligiant was split into two and how well did that turn out? The only knock on this film is that one of my favorite actors, Jacob Lofland, didn't have more screen time as Aries, but aside from that this was a perfect conclusion to the film series, and a better ending than the one that was originally written for this franchise.Ball said he wasn’t directing particularly for the (pre)teenage ticketholder - “I certainly didn’t make it as a YA thing, I just made it as a movie, and young people are in it,” he said - and the film just barely escaped its initial R-rating (it is rated PG-13).
